Welcome to the 2018 Stampin' Friends Blog Hop! I am so excited to be hopping for another year with these wonderful artists! We have added a few new hoppers to our ranks, so be sure to check out the fabulous work of Jenny Hall, Katja Ettig, Jessie Holton, Sandra Mastello, and Kim Jolley!

This month it's all about love... and I am in love with Brusho. If you have been following my blog the past month it is all I can talk about. I promise I will quit soon... lol! But seriously, I love Stampin' Up's new watercolor crystals. They make me look like an effortless artist!

​​And for this month's card, I took an embossing folder, tapped some Brusho in there, smooshed a piece of shimmery white cardstock in there, and voila! A delightful card that I am going to give to my husband, because I just love him. He has the patience of a saint. (The font and embossing folder are from the new Petal Passion suite!)

For my project this month, I wanted to recreate something that I made for Jonathan and I several years back-- it's a little place to write notes to one another. We take turns writing love notes and it's a way to fill our "buckets" when we might forget to say nice things to one another or are in such a rush around the house...

​I used the Petal Passion Memories & More Card Pack, some free Sale-a-bration Shimmer ribbon, and an IKEA frame, plus a chalk marker I got at Tuesday Morning.

I hope you have loved my projects (I am #9 on the list) and that you continue to hop along and see what everyone else has created! This is a terrific bunch!!!
